S11 E2: The 4x Faster Indexer: Scaling Rust-Based Search to Millions of Documents Without Infrastructure Bloat with Clément "Kero" Renault, Co-Founder & CTO of Meilisearch

From Code Story: Insights from Startup Tech Leaders Noah Labhart | Podcast for Technical Founders & Startups

Clément "Kero" Renault wanted to be an architect when he was younger. During that time, he also learned about computers and built his first website - and he never stopped building. Funny story, he lost that first website cause it wasn't on Git. Outside of his professional life, he likes to draw, craft and to cook. He also enjoys video games, and mentioned Hidden Reign was his favorite game of all time, alongside the likes of Cyberpunk. Seven years ago, Kero was in school, and he wanted to build a solid search experience, but not just a general search - one that indexed your data, and allowed you to have a "Google" just for your info. After winning a school hackathon, Kero and his mates wanted to take it to the next level. This is the creation story of Meilisearch.
